Those old book numbering blues

[Joe Malin]

I'm confused.

You want one autonumber format to control stuff that flows through an
entire book. You want paragraph numbers not reset between chapters. If
so, then you *don't* want <n=0>, cuz that will restart the numbering?

To set up *one* paragraph style so that it was numbered 
  from paragraph 1 for the book's first paragraph in the first file, 
  to paragraph <n> for the n-th paragraph in the last file,

I'd use autonumber P:<n+> for the style, and set Document > Numbering...
so that paragraph numbers continued from the previous file in the book.

Alternatively, if I wanted the first paragraph to be 1 for *each* file
in the book, I'd use P:<n+> but set Document > Numbering... so that
paragraph numbers restart at 1 for each file.

I am using one autonumber thread to control stuff that needs to flow
through a book. I just wanted to check that in this case, i.e. paragraph
number threads not reset between chapters, there is no alternative to
creating a separate <n=0> paragraph clone for all the numbered
paragraphs. Anyone know any good tricks?

FrameScript is not an option for this job, but the final template will
be structured.
